PANIC \\ A CHURCH
FOUR PERSONS KIM ID IN CA7K
OLiC EDIFICE IN CHICtGI
More Than 400 Persons, Mostly Ladies
and Children, Were at Easter Ser
vice Saturday Night When a Boy
Opened Church Door and Shouted
"Fire"—Congregation Stampeded.
Chicago, April 15.—During a panic
which followed a cry of fire Saturday
night while 400 persons were partici
pating in the Easter service in the St.
Ludllmu Homan Cath.lic church.
Twenty-fourth street and Albany ave
nue, three children and one woman
were killed and a score of others in
jured, several seriously. The majority
01' the worshipers in the church at the
time the false alarm of fire was given
were women and children, and in a
tVw minutes all were in a tangled
mass, fighting to escape from the sup
posed danger. Many persons jumped
through the windows, but the greater
portion crowded to i.*\e center aisle.
The extra weight proved too much
for the floor, and some of the beams
supporting it broke. The cracking of
the timbers increased the fright of the
now terrified women and children, and
everyone in the place became panic
stricken, men, women and children
fighting desperately with each other in
an effort to reach the outside. The
women and children suffered most in
the struggle, and when the church
was finally emptied three children
were lying dead in the aisles and one
woman was so badly hurt that she
died while being removed from the
church.
Trampled to Death.
The dead:
Mrs. Kate Kanik, knocked down and
trampled upon; died from internal
hemorrhages.
Emma Hotka, 5 years old; trampled
to death.
Barbara Hermanek, 10 years old;
crushed in the crowd.
Lillie Gunat, 9 years of age; tram
pled to death.
Fully a Bcore of other persons, prin
cipally children, were more or less in
jured, bui none fatally.
A boys prank was responsible for
the accident. While Rev. N. Karnik,
pastor of the church, was offering the
evening prayer one of a crowd of boys
who had been loitering outside the
church suddenly pushed open the front
door and shouted "Fire." Seeing the
serious effect his words had on the
congregation the boy ran away, and
the police were unable to find him or
to learn his identity.

and possessing tonic properties that act gently and admirably in the up-building of a run
down, weakened or disordered condition of the system. >
One of the greatest points in favor of S. S. S. is that it is the only blood remedy on the
market which does not contain a mineral ingredient of some kind to derange or damage the
system. It is the one medicine that can be taken with absolute safety by the youngest child
or the oldest member of the family, and persons who have allowed their systems to get in
such condition that most medicines are repulsive to the stomach will find that S. S. S.,
while thorough, is gentle and pleasant in its action, and has none of the nauseating effects
of the different mineral mixtures and concoctions offered as blood purifiers.
As every part of the body is dependent on the blood for nourishment and strength, it is
necessary that this vital fluid be kept free from germs and poisons. So long as it remains

some irritating humor. Sores and Ulcers are the result of morbid, unhealthy matter in the
blood, and Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison etc., are all deep-seated
blood disorders that continue to grow worse as long as the poison remains.

in the blood and we see this great affliction manifested in many ways. The skin has a
waxy, pallid appearance, the eyes arc often weak, glands of the neck enlarged, and as the
taint has been in the blood since birth the entire health is usually affected.
In all blood troubles S. S. »S. has proved itself a perfect remedy and has well earned the
